Welcome to majestic Edinburgh, a city of cobbles, elegant Georgian façades and an internationally renowned arts calendar. A compact city, Edinburgh is easy to find your way around on two feet. From the view high above on Arthur’s Seat to the decks of the Royal Yacht Britannia you can pack a lot into a short break here. Breeze through to Edinburgh from Southampton airport and take in Scotland’s great capital.

Visit in August and you’ll be entertained morning, noon and night with the Festival. But at any time of the year, you can lose yourself in the Old Town wynds, linger over a wee dram in the cosy pubs of Cockburn Street or tuck into the catch of the day at one of Leith’s waterfront restaurants.

August is festival month in Edinburgh and the best time to catch the city. There’s the Festival itself, the pomp and finery of the Military Tattoo (and the Palace of Holyrood House) and of course, the madness of the Fringe.
